Places to belong

1,638 registered charities are based in Edmonton, by mailing address

There is no count for Bannerman on its own: the charities are those of all of Edmonton. It works out to 1.3 per 1,000 residents, where the typical Alberta town has 1.3 and Canada’s 1.4. Counting by mailing address favors a service town, where the surrounding area’s charities get their mail, over the suburbs and countryside around it.

Volunteering

37.1%

Formal volunteering is measured only for the province: 37.1% of Alberta’s people in 2023, give or take (35.1% to 39.2%), with the provinces between 25.2% and 40.3%.
